Kia Sportage: Precautions For Catalytic Converter
CAUTION
If a large amount of unburned gasoline flows into the converter, it may
overheat and create a fire hazard. To
prevent this observe the following precautions and explain them to your
customer.
1. Use only unleaded gasoline.
2. Do not run the engine while the car is at rest for a long time. Avoid running
the engine at fast idle for more than 10
minutes and idle speed for more than 20 minutes.
3. Do not measure engine compression for an extended time. Engine compression
tests must be made as rapidly as
possible. Remove the fuel pump relay before performing a compression test.
4. Do not dispose of used catalytic converter together with parts contaminated
with gasoline or oil.
